In March 2010, in honor of Women’s History Month, Humble Arts Foundation (hafny.org) will present its second edition of 31 Women in Art Photography, a six-week exhibition celebrating 31 of the most innovative women in emerging art photography. The exhibition will be co-curated by Charlotte Cotton and Jon Feinstein, and will take place at Affirmation Arts.

The West Prize was launched in 2008 with the mission to find exciting new artists and adding them to the West Collection.

The West Prize will again award the 10 finalists $10,000 each to add their work to the West Collection. The application deadline is November 1, 2009 and artists must be 18 years or older and can live anywhere in the world.

Next deadline is January 2, 2010. This is an ongoing program with 3 residencies a year.

Our Residence Program was developed to continue our support and education of fine art photographers. Through the program, artists receive a $1250 credit and one free class, or $1500 credit and no class. The credit is only for use of the rentals and services at RayKo, it is not a cash stipend for the purchase of supplies. The residence does not include a housing, transportation or food stipend.

Small: We are using the term “small” in its broadest sense and encourage you to do the same. For example, a list of synonyms for “small” suggest numerous possible perspectives, including: compact; miniature; poky; cramped; petite; puny; stunted; minor; unimportant; trivial; insignificant; meager; insufficient; ashamed; modest; unpretentious; humble; and, believe it or not, underwear (“smalls” in Britain).

Deadline: All entries must be received at the gallery by September 30, 2009.
